BTC Fight Promotions returns on Saturday, June 6th, 2026, with BTC 37: MMA Expo, a one-of-a-kind event that redefines the live MMA experience with a full day of action unlike anything seen before in Ontario.

Designed to showcase the complete spectrum of mixed martial arts, BTC 37 features both rising amateur talent and established professional fighters across two separate events in a single day. The afternoon begins with the amateur card, where the next generation steps into the spotlight, followed by a stacked professional event in the evening, headlined by what is expected to be a high-stakes title fight.

These bouts represent a major milestone for developing fighters, as they look to prove themselves and take the next step toward the professional ranks.

As the day transitions into night, the venue will reset before welcoming fans back for the professional card; delivering an entirely new atmosphere as some of the region’s top fighters take center stage. With elite-level matchups and a title fight headlining the evening, the pro portion of BTC 37 promises high intensity and unforgettable moments inside the cage.

Doors will open at 12:00 PM for the amateur event, with fights running from 1:00 PM to approximately 4:00 PM. Following a brief intermission and venue reset, doors for the professional card will open at 6:00 PM, with the event running from 7:00 PM to approximately 10:00 PM.

For nearly a decade, BTC Fight Promotions has been at the forefront of Canadian MMA, building a pathway from amateur competition to the highest levels of the sport. BTC 37: MMA Expo continues that mission in a bold new format, offering fans a rare opportunity to witness the full journey of a fighter in a single day.
